Lots of growth in Collin County and companies like Toyota and Liberty Mutal have brought in thousands of jobs and decrease home supply and driven prices up. 

Even if you don't agree with my numbers and need to decrease the return by 5% it's STILL ahead of an index fund.As you can see from the link above, over 30 years I would see a 23.98% gain EACH year.

Should have found a handy man and ordered some flex seal and make do with what you have... partly a joke but also if the quotes were more than the funds available than you should have found another fix since there should always be a reserve fund for the next issue to come up so I would have suggested a temporary fix <2000$ like caulking and flex seal etc...

On the Temporary Side we do: 3.

@Robert Ellis Thank you for your insight, has there been a decrease in volume of transactions in Columbus?

Temporary i extended the pipe with a extension so it lands on grass, but it then blocks parking to side of house. 

Or you could simply just include a flat fee in the rent and advertise the units having certain utilities paid for.Offering below list price is difficult (but not impossible) in western WA, so you need to identify other value add opportunities that will decrease expenses or increase cash flow.

If that happens, property prices may decrease because everyone would want to sell their STR properties.

I think of febreeze of being more of a temporary solution (I could be wrong).

We're all familiar with the story by now: record prices, decreasing housing inventory, and continuing affordability issues.
